Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times

I Just Want To See (1)

Rothgarr never denied that he had a strong desire for Anna’s body, a desire that existed before he knew he loved her.

And, besides her, he had never felt such a desire for any other woman.

Facing Anna’s questioning, Rothgarr laughed back angrily, and sneered: “If all I want is your body, can you still be standing here right now?”

He put down his dignity and confessed his feelings to Anna, and it was fine if she didn’t return the same feelings, but for her to even suspect that his love was not pure…how could he bear this?

Anna naturally didn’t really think that Rothgarr only wanted her body, otherwise he would have played with her up and down like a plaything, but in fact he was already restrained enough. She couldn’t demand him to be a gentleman.

She asked that way only to elicit what she was going to say next.

“If you love me but don’t respect my thoughts, what’s the difference between having me and having a pet?” Anna said, “By stopping me from doing what I should do, have you ever thought about how much self-guilt I’ll feel, how broken I’ll be, even if I stay by your side?”

Rothgarr knew Anna’s character to some extent. That was why he deliberately concealed Natalie’s death. How could he forget her dazed and desperate look after learning that Natalie had already passed away?

But what about him? Did she never think about what would happen to him without her?

He asked back with a cold face: “What about me? If I let you go, you’ll die in The Abyss. Do you think I can immediately forget you and find another woman?” Even Balan, who once advertised that sensual pleasures were paramount, couldn’t do this kind of thing.

Anna was speechless to Rothgarr’s questioning.

She did put the Human Realm’s safety above Rothgarr; she couldn’t argue with that. Human nature was selfish, she didn’t think about how Rothgarr would suffer without her for the sake of the Human Realm, and he didn’t care about the Human Realm in order to keep her.

It was an unsolvable puzzle.

Rothgarr used the demon’s once-in-a-lifetime soul contract on her, which was also a responsibility for Anna.

“I won’t necessarily die. No, I don’t think I will die.” Anna looked down at the red mark on her palm, “I feel that The Abyss doesn’t have much malice towards me.”

The Abyss was not a living thing, but she felt that The Abyss was a bit like the “cultivation pathway” of Heaven in those cultivation novels; without consciousness, but with certain rules.

Of course, this was just her intuition. There would definitely be risks, but those were risks she had to take.

“You’ve only been in there once.” Rothgarr held Anna’s palm, the red marks on her palm bothering him.

Anna looked up at Rothgarr. Although he didn’t intend to let go, being able to communicate with her like this was already an improvement.

Although at this moment the irritated aura around him could not be concealed at all.

“I just want to tell you that I don’t want to die.” Anna shook her head. She saw the panic under Rothgarr’s indifferent appearance, so how could she bear to say those words to him again?

She held Rothgarr’s hand back, looked at him, and smiled: “The most daring and desperate thing I did in this world isn’t this matter at all, but was me thinking that a demon wanted to take my life, believing he would never fall in love with a human, but still falling in love with that demon.”

Rothgarr had thought that Anna would keep trying to convince him to let her self-sacrifice, but he didn’t expect her to say such a thing.

He froze for a while, almost beaming with joy.

He loved Anna, so he would not allow Anna not to love him. Even if she didn’t love him now, it didn’t matter, as long as she was by his side long enough, she would definitely love him.

But then, he suspected that she was saying that to get him to let her go to The Abyss.

“Even if you say that, I won’t let you go to The Abyss.” Rothgarr said indifferently.

Anna wasn’t angry either. If she were Rothgarr, she would suspect that her motives were impure.

Right now, she wanted to put The Abyss aside and focus on her problems with Rothgarr.

Interracial love always has to face countless problems.

She and Rothgarr were too far behind in lifespan, but since he made a soul contract with her, that wasn’t an issue anymore. But the differences in their beliefs were really difficult to deal with. He was a demon and had his own standards of conduct, many of which she could not accept. But in fact, she fell in love with him knowing this beforehand.

She didn’t even know when that started.

Anna took a small step forward, almost toe-to-toe with Rothgarr. She wrapped her arms around his waist, her cheek resting against his chest.

She didn’t know when she fell in love with him, but when she leaned against him like this, her heart beat faster and she felt relieved. She didn’t dislike his kisses and touches before, even enjoyed them. At that time, if it wasn’t for the heavy burden of Natalie’s matter, she might have slept with him happily. When he was in a coma, she was worried about him. When a human mage wanted to capture him, she would rather stay behind herself so he could leave safely. When she already made up her mind to sacrifice herself and saw him risk everything to see her, the first thing she felt was joy.

She clearly thought that she and Rothgarr could not have a long-term future because of their differing beliefs, but she still fell in love with him.
